A 27-year-old man is dead after being shot at a park on Montreal's South Shore.
According to Longueuil police, they received 911 calls shortly after 11 p.m. on Wednesday about shots being fired at Léon-Gravel Park, which located on Marie-Victorin Boulevard in Brossard.
Police believe someone helped the victim get to a hospital, where he eventually died.
The fatal shooting prompted police to set up a large security perimeter on Marie-Victorin Boulevard between Matte Boulevard and Rhoda Street. Police say that area will be cordoned off for much of the day and are urging drivers to avoid it.
Longueuil police spokesperson Marie Beauvais said investigators are expected to speak with witnesses during the day.
